In this video, I go over why I encourage many of my students to try to make as much of their drum beats as possible and rely on Top Loops as supplemental/backup DRUMS. All about control

    I hadn't considered grabbing a basic 909/808 pack to create the loop, then later adding in your own samples. I'm usually choosing samples one by one and constructing the loop. Thanks for the tip!

    i have a few zen packs and can confirm the sounds are legit. swapping out samples on the 909 kit is such a no brainer, but i never thought to do it! thanks for sharing that, i will give it a shot in my workflow.

    I've noticed westend highly recommends stacking multipel claps, or kicks, or hats, etc. Is there a way to do it successfully without phasing?

    Choose the way you thing sounds better for you. I think you can definitely layer if you ears can hear for claps that are layered. I'd say to avoid it just don't pick similar sounding claps.

    While I don't hate loops I never use them for the reason of not being fully in control. On the other hand loops give instant satisfaction but you need to commit to the feel and swing of that one sample (or rework the timing). I prefer to make simple but effective (fitting the tune or idea) drums and focus on the arrangement part of the drums (single hits, transitions, fills). Loved the Moog Tutorial Zen, I;m dutch and in the netherlands we have tatjana (know for her big boobs) I had a good time laughing every time you pushed the name being the right name..... The moog defenitly has huge boobies and great sub as well
